No. No gardening skills were provided to me upon receiving the name at the time of my marriage.
I've always had a black thumb. I even managed to kill a cactus.
But, my son enjoys plants, and I have a nice sittin' porch, so for the last few years we've filled some pots and tried to keep them from expiring.
This year we have replanted the gnome garden my son started at a library program a few years ago and we have some other pots going as well.

Cover Reveal for my fellow InkSpell Publishing Author, Kristy Centeno!
The Dark Side of the Moon (Secrets of the
Moon saga #4)
Book Blurb:
During her darkest hour, will she find the courage to seek
the light?
Marjorie has eluded both capture and
death yet again, but her days are numbered. The old threat has resurfaced to endanger
everyone she cares for and only a forged alliance with a member of royal blood
will guarantee their safety and hers.
However, in the midst of accepting who
she is, Marjorie has to come to terms with the fact that those she considered
friends may be anything but, and the mother she thought dead may have been
missing against her will.
A relationship in turmoil, a storm
brewing in the distance, a shattered tranquility...will she find the courage to
save her loved ones even if that means losing her humanity?

Jurassic pot! Hilarious. Is that what the dinosaurs smoke?

I am a black-and-blue thumb myself, but I have managed to grow beautiful tiger lilies -- a freak accident I'm sure -- and my indoor viney plant has survived 2 months in my care. Cactus seems to be the only plant I haven't killed. Even the plants labelled "Hard To Kill" are no match for my rotten thumbs. I've killed them all...
ReplyDeleteYes. I have quite the cemetery as well.

I've never tried to have any plants so I don't know what color thumb I have...Hopefully yours keep doing well!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should!

I don't tend to do well with gardens. Houseplants seem to go better for some reason (probably because I don't need to go outside to take care of them). I should show you a picture of my vegetable garden. It's so bad that when I get around to dealing with it, I'll need a machete. (But in unrelated good news, I have now justified buying a machete.)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Kristy! Love the cover!
The cats eat any plant life I bring into the house, including pretty flowers from the husband.
Delete:(
I want to see a picture of the machete!!

I have a brown thumb and yes, I've killed a cactus before. My new garden is really growing now though. Maybe we've both finally beaten the odds.
ReplyDeleteMaybe!
DeleteMaybe there is hope for us all!

I've killed a cactus too. My mom can grow anything and my dad gardens, but none of those skills passed to me.
ReplyDeleteI didn't think so either, until the SON wanted plants.
DeleteWho knew?!

Awesome post, loved the pics and an excellent write up on the book.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Thank you!

I have a black thumb, but I have to 'cause it's in the Goths manual. I dig the flowers in your "Hanging on the shed." photo--what kind are those?
ReplyDeleteCongrats and good luck, Kristy. Killer cover!
Nice!
DeleteI don't remember the name. I'll have to get the tag from the pot and then I'll let you know.
